    I've got a foundation pieced pineapple in progress, and I've bought all the Kansas Troubles Honey buns and yardage necessary to make a king-sized log cabin quilt. I'm planning an Oh-My-Gosh with honey buns and one of my recent quilts has a bazillion 9-patches made of 1½" strips.

    I love 1½" strips because they look so much more intricate than the 2½".

    I love 1.5" strips! Great for LC blocks, for doll & mini quilts, a PS quilt, and for squares to swap!

    Log cabin blocks with 3 inch centers look very nice.

    Sometimes. But not nearly enough to actually BUY a group of 1 1/2" strips.

    Never used them. 2 1/2" is small enough for me.
